Topic: Has anyone had their 3ds crash when registering someone online.

I have added two friends on my 3ds I then added someone off of xboxlive and my 3ds crashed and showed him as unconfirmed as I added him first and it froze then I had to hold off for around 5 secs after that I went back to my friends list it confirmed him and showed his mii and froze after that I turned it off and on again and it is fine luckily has anyone else experienced this.I also had a animal crossing game card that got bricked is it also possible that a 3ds can get bricked like some ds games by adding people you don't know in real life.

It only happened once to me.

Nope. Never.

Hope it's just a one time thing on friendslist now and no problem wireless on 3ds doesn't seem to kill the battery a lot the wireless chip must be efficient.

I mean, I would address this to Nintendo so a simple update would fix it. I'm sure the May update will include some fixes for the system including eShop and Internet Browser. And hopefully, a true messaging system.

Anyone reckon you could get bricked?

Depends. Bricked for what?

I wasn't adding someone, I was just looking at the messages, then it froze, but the music kept playing. I held down the power button, the screen went black, but the system didn't shut off... so then I held it down for a little longer until it shut off.

yes, i've seen reports of other users experiencing errors/BSoDs outside of actual games before. Feel free to discuss your experience(s) in this existing thread.
